When a user submits a query, I would like to append this to search results in Youtube and download this "page" on the backend of my code (Python-Django).

What is the best way to do this? Do you suggest that I do this manually? And create a custom parser? Scanning each line for a certain pattern...

Or is there an easier way, such as using their API?

By the way, I am familiar with crawling. I just want to know the method for YOUTUBE. I understand how to download/parse pages. (I will be using urllib2.)

The preferred way is probably with the YouTube API
